* Trying to make code a bit cleaner
Since that function already has full support for UV scaling it makes
sense to unify the behavior in one function instead of having a separate
monochrome function that does weird things.
Also deprecates that function since all its use cases are now covered by
drawImage.
This adds support for displaying subtitles embedded in movie files. This
supports files with multiple subtitle streams where each stream contains
the subtitles for one language. When the movie file is opened, the
stream for the currently active language will be used and displayed.
This resolves one of the points mentioned in #1522.
This also depends on PR #1484.
This adds proper Unicode support by allowing the parse system to read
UTF-8 encoded files. The new mode is controlled by a mod option which
allows older mods to continue using the legacy text encoding.
That option changes the behavior of several systems in FSO. It disallows
the usage of Volition fonts since they don't support Unicode encoding
and changes a few usages of special characters to their unicode
counterparts of generic rendering solutions.
This fixes#1415.
The original OpenGL Core changes only used a single vertex array object
for specifying the data layout of our vertex data. This uses the OpenGL
extension GL_ARB_vertex_attrib_binding to extend that so that each
vertex_layout uses a separate vertex array object which should improve
performance by reducing the CPU overhead while switching the vertex
layout. Since we need to use offsets into the vertex buffers at some
points this can not be done with the core functions since those do not
support specifying an offset when binding a vertex buffer.
GL_ARB_vertex_attrib_binding does support that and also features an
improved API for specifying the vertex layout. If that extension is not
available then the rendering engine will fall back to the current code.
In CPU intensive scenes I observed a frametime improvement of 1-2 ms.
This converts the deferred lighting shader to use uniform buffers for
the dynamic data sent to the GPU while rendering the lighting effects.
This doesn't affect performance but the deferred lighting code is a
nicely isolated piece of rendering code where I could test how the
rendering code could use the uniform buffers.
This is related to #910.
This converts all usages of bmpman textures to OpenGL texture arrays.
That means that all frames of an animation are stored in a single OpenGL
texture object and can be accessed at the same time in a single draw
call. This should significantly reduce the overhead of drawing lots of
particles since all particles of a single animation can be drawn with a
single draw call.
This fixes#1169.
Thanks to the new material system, it's now possible to easily make the
2D functions independent of the underlying graphics API which allows to
reduce the size of the gr_screen 2D API.
